Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1793

Starting a business, then running off to the middle of nowhere to test drones.

"You—"

Monique opened her mouth, but just as she was about to lash out, she saw Juniper walk in.

The girl's cool gaze landed squarely on her face.

The words died in Monique's throat. She quietly sat back down, hugging her husband's arm and continuing to sob.

Ebony Fox didn't say a word. She walked to the very last row and sat down.

Pulling her baseball cap low over her face.

Aside from her tightly pursed lips, no one could read her expression.

Juniper glanced at her, then turned to Shanley. "Let's go."

"Alright."

After giving the orders, Shanley returned to Juniper's side and took her hand.

Juniper remained silent, squeezing his hand back and leaning into his embrace.

—

An indeterminate amount of time passed.

The plane began its descent.

Before it had even fully stopped, Monique impatiently stood up, shouting, "Open the doors! I need to go find my son right now!"

"Uh..."

The flight attendant glanced at Shanley. The plane was still taxiing and hadn't reached the gate.

But given Monique's hysterical state, she didn't dare argue.

"Aunt Monique, give it five minutes," Shanley spoke up to remind her. "We're in a foreign country; we have to abide by their regulations."

"Aren't we already stopped? Why won't you let me out?!"

Monique's eyes were completely swollen, her hair a mess, looking entirely unhinged.

"Open the door, hurry up and open the door!" she screamed, so agitated that even Hector couldn't hold her back.

"Monique, if you can't quiet down, you can stay on the plane and wait."

Shanley stood up, adjusting his tie, his deep voice carrying a chilling edge.
